SO i took my NTX on the track at COTA. Hit 136mph on the back straight, kept up with a few supersports in the turns, scraped some pegs and boot slider, all in all i was impressed with what the bike could do and it was so much fun. I have a new found respect for this italian beast. I am editing the footage i took (chest mounted GoPro) and will post by the end of the week.
Bike was 100% all stock (with a few things removed) on stock pirelli scorpion trail tires.
Track was COTA, level 2 with ridesmart.

Nice job, looks like a blast. BTW, I've seen just 140 at high altitude on a VERY long stretch, so 136 indicated is great for the short-ish straight at COTA. Thanks for posting.
 
Excellent.........I did track training day last year, left all the bits on though and the track was short, nowhere near 136mph and not as capable as you look, my tyres were ripped up a bit though mainly on the left (lh circuit!)



These helmet cams are good, but the sound really needs a external mic to kill the wind noise and the editing bit takes ages and lots of patience

Nice! i was wondering if you had a video, i saw your picture and figured you had done some track time as well. Yes i wish i had used an external mic. wind noise and camera shake noise ruins it.
